Reflection Questions
Looking at the Printable Instructions & Test PDF Document for Combined Content, Reading and
Mathematics:
How do the skills differ by grade band?
Thinking about a student with Level 1 support needs:
What is the student’s active communication response mode?
What is the student’s wait time?
Is everyone working with the student aware of these critical variables to encourage communication and choice-
making skills?
Look at the bar graph for Elementary Eddie:
What are his accuracy rates?
Based on those accuracy rates, do you think Eddie is making consistent choices? How do you know this?
Do you think Eddie still requires Level one supports?
Using the detailed report from the Checkpoint you just administered:
What is the accuracy and response rate for your student?
How could this information change your instruction this week?
Using the Printable Instructions and Test Document for Content Understanding:
How does this compare to the Level 1 instruction document we looked at earlier?
Do you use all of the question formats from Bloom’s Taxonomy in your daily instruction?
Using the Skills Analysis Report:
Consistent green dots in this section mean that the student has strength in remembering. How can you
use this information to increase skills in other areas?
Are you able to make any statements that you think might be true about the student’s skills?
What skills did he master this month?
Where does he need more support?
